Classic mid century 1940's hand stitched hard card suitcase, upcycled with Annie Sloan chalk paint inside and out. Poster paper depicting a Plan of London has been applied as decoupage to the top, base and back of the case. Each side features London Underground or 'Tube' map poster paper.

The case has been finished with a coat of dark wax to 'age' and 'antique'. This has given the box a dark, almost ash appearance, as if it may have been rescued from a smoke damaged old attic after the great fire of London in 1666!

When closed the case itself measures 18" x 11" x 6".

The case is still fit to be used for its original purpose although there is no key to supply. Might also be used as part of an interior design scheme, for storage or perhaps a wedding reception card case.

The original makers sticker "British Made - Pioneer Luggage - Guaranteed Quality" has been retained inside the lid.
